    Dear reader, when you read OP’s posts, take the time to look at the upvote to downvote percentage. This poster is going out of its way to bash Democrats, and while we can’t say why that is (thanks mods!!!), we CAN say that there is a concerted effort by Republicans, Russians, right-wing trolls, and other authoritarians to throw this election to Trump to establish authoritarianism here. Keep that in mind as you read these articles from this poster.

      Isn’t it that we just are not allowed to say they are bots or paid provocateurs? I thought we still were allowed to say they are dishonest, acting in bad faith, and MAGAs cosplaying as leftists.

        Give it a try and see if the mods let it stand. That’s the only way to be sure. And don’t expect consistency. After all, this is a part of the rules:

        All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

      Hi there, friend. Don’t you think that’s an unfair insinuation to make? OP doesn’t write the articles, they only post them for discussion. Thank you!

    • Some instances don’t show downvotes (like blahaj.zone). Also, maybe they’re bashing Democrats bc Dems are fucking awful? Not as bad as republicans obviously, but that should go without saying around here. Leftists shitting on Biden and refusing to vote for him seems to have played an important role in him stepping down and, until he did, we were constantly shat on by liberals over it and accused of being Russian/trolls/etc. This is the same. Harris needs to adopt leftist positions if she wants leftist support

      Edit: I am aware, however, that OP likes to troll. Their style is classic (i.e., obvious yet still reels people in) and it’s hilarious

        What’s even better is that the poster, who tries to make this personal everytime I post something, never mentions that I’ve posted articles that are critical of Trump, Stein, and Harris, as well as articles praising each of them.

        So, if he’s assuming I agree with every viewpoint in the articles I post, how does that even work when I share so many conflicting perspectives?!

        I also created and mod a political news community where people have posted articles praising Harris, criticizing Stein and Trump, and trashing me—yet I still leave those up.

        But he’s really really mad that I’m not voting for Harris, so he decides to warn readers of my deep dark evil powers.

      Actually I’m helping the Democrats: https://lemmy.world/comment/12698046

      @SatansMaggotyCumFart says “I’ve been a stanch socialist for years, always voting for the SWPUSA but I can’t wait to vote for Harris this year.”

      “I’m a proud democrat now due to your conduct in these comments.”

      and

      “You’re definitely doing a great job drumming up support for Harris!”

      All that and you didn’t even make it easy for people to check my posts! Here’s my post history: https://lemmy.world/u/UniversalMonk?page=1&sort=New&view=Posts

      How can you say I bash Democrats when I post Pro-democrat articles though? And I’ve posted articles that are critical of Trump, Stein, and Harris, as well as articles praising each of them.

      So, if you’re assuming I agree with every viewpoint in the articles I post, how does that even work when I share so many conflicting perspectives?!

      I also created and mod a political news community where people have posted articles praising Harris, criticizing Stein and Trump, and trashing me—yet I still leave those up.

      https://lemmy.world/c/politicsunfiltered

      Why did you forget to mention the pro-democrat articles and the anti-Trump articles that I post, in your little rant?

      Do you have an agenda? Hlmmmm… because we CAN say that there is a concerted effort by Republicans, Russians, right-wing trolls, and other authoritarians to try to paint everyone as some russian agent in order to cause chaos and confusion. So readers, please keep that in mind as you read these posts attempting to falsely paint me as pro-Trump. :)
